Hello Apologies if this question has been asked before but just wanted to double check to ensure my baby's visa application goes without any incident. My wife and I were granted a 189 visa a while ago and whilst we have validated the visa, we have not yet made the move to Australia. We now have a baby and are aware that we need to apply for 101 visa. After reading forms 40 & 47, am I right in thinking that my wife and I are to undergo police checks again to apply for this visa? I have no problem doing the checks again but don't want to delay the process by missing them out. Thanks

Dear All We have just joined the forum and will post our timeline soon. However, we have come across an issue that I hope forum members will be able to advise us on. We have recently been allocated a Case Officer for our 189 visa application and waited to organise our medicals/police checks until we were asked. We received an email from our Case Officer requesting that the information must be uploaded within 28 days. Unfortunately, due to work commitments, we are unable to undergo medicals until the 29th day. In the email from our Case Officer, it states that if we are unable to carry out medicals within 28 days, we must provide some information to verify that the delay was due to circumstances beyond our control. We have sent an email to our Case Officer to clarify the situation but must wait up to 7 working days for an answer. Has anyone else been in a similar situation and what happened. Any information gratefully received:unsure:
